Refurbished Golf Balls.
Liz France is now collecting her third tranche of used golf balls, ready to send off. She thanks everyone who has brought so many in, so far.
"On Course Foundation" Presentation.
On Tuesday 14th January, two representatives from my Captain's Charity came along after Seniors golf and both gave a short talk on where the money raised goes. Both Alastair and "G" were extremely articulate and in the case of "G" he told movingly of his own serious injury in Afghanistan. We presented a cheque to them for £1820.00 and a big "thank you" to all those who helped raised that sum. I am supporting the same charity this year. PS. don't forget the Captain's charity bunker fine on the 9th/18th hole.
Club Pro Shop.
Luke Viney is always available to help spend your money on any golf items from basic balls and tees, up to and including new bags, polos and gillets.
The Course.
Please, please, please replace divots and repair pitch marks. Certain fairways are looking decidely the worse for wear! Jack and his team need help at this time of year especially. So far we have only played to temporary greens on a couple of occasions, but Winter is not over by a long way yet!
Work is continuing on the new sheds and I hope to hear that the practice net area will be next on the list of projects.
Hilman Trophy.
Our mens vice captain, Phil Sloan will be asking for your support in making up a team for this prestigious competition. He will be especially interested in hearing from low handicappers!
Mens Club Competitions.
Al Bowyer will be circulating details shortly of the five mens competitions; Club Singles, Club Pairs, Scratch Singles, Seniors Singles and Seniors Pairs. The usual £5.00 entry fee per competition will be required BEFORE the entry draw.
I look forward to seeing you all on the course or in the Clubhouse, and a big PR GC welcome to all new members and players.
Dick Pooley, Club Captain.
